A moderately busy cycle for documentation this time around:
- The most significant change is the replacement of the old kernel-doc script (a monstrous collection of Perl regexes that predates the Git era) with a Python reimplementation. That, too, is a horrifying collection of regexes, but in a much cleaner and more maintainable structure that integrates far better with the Sphinx build system. This change has been in linux-next for the full 6.15 cycle; the small number of problems that turned up have been addressed, seemingly to everybody's satisfaction. The Perl kernel-doc script remains in tree (as scripts/kernel-doc.pl) and can be used with a command-line option if need be. Unless some reason to keep it around materializes, it will probably go away in 6.17. Credit goes to Mauro Carvalho Chehab for doing all this work. - Some RTLA documentation updates - A handful of Chinese translations - The usual collection of typo fixes, general updates, etc. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQFDBAABCAAtFiEEIw+MvkEiF49krdp9F0NaE2wMflgFAmg0j/IPHGNvcmJldEBs d24ubmV0AAoJEBdDWhNsDH5Yu7sH/1w2LtO8XB/KTRNmuz3tV6KzGtDvQVwqgxB2 X8bbeJlBtYenvuak66RjCfucOh7Y8Ni3UN0G2BGa67KBAxmZEYc6u+IF4SrJUg5g DuS6+ZXgqV4TrjWMRof5LtPS8KbNJLGnqgxSVdEPSBV0jJ13r3gb3/e7X06iNAKR X4Nq+h5aa1tCwZTkPOSHHQn4qm3Tb1LQreDSn8gnBn6e8nVJIakNlwaVYkClhI9B byvItInv32LPAXPDkcEWITvLNUTiMobTyfBYHOD6i3nImQ+j4ZiMMmOUjiB+0jDO UQDvoUa46ipXkLBsBOrYEkM/iKXBawMwTa3CcudxR4scvVgATJs= =BQ9X -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
